Madison dropped Archer in front of his house and he wasted no minute before entering.He met a patient Gabriel waiting for him on the porch."Young master, welcome home."Archer rolled his eyes, "You don't have to keep calling me that whenever you see me.""Very well." Gabriel led him inside the house with a smile, "How was today?"Archer shrugged, "What can I say? Today was more educative than I thought.""Did you encounter any problems?" Gabriel asked.Archer shook his head, he didn't want to snitch on his colleagues but he wanted to complain about the behavior of the higher-ups."No, everything was fine. They are throwing a welcome party for me tonight."Gabriel's eyes widened, "That's great news."He looked at Archer with contempt, his eyes judging the outfit he wore."Did you have to go out like that?" He asked Archer.Archer looked down at himself, not finding anything wrong."What?"Gabriel sighed, he pinched the bridge of his nose out of frustration."I know you want to be hu

Lola's eyes widened from shock, "No, I don't want to get into trouble."Archer shook his head at her, disappointed at her line of reasoning."Have you tried reporting him?" he asked just to be sure.Lola shook her head as she stood, "You have no idea, do you?"Archer shook his head, "tell me." he spoke softly.Lola sighed, "It's not as easy as you think. People like me have no voice, it's always my word against his and who do you think the company will believe?" she asked.The question floored Archer, he opened his mouth to talk but Lola was already walking away from him and into the private room.Archer ran a hand through his hair as an angry growl escaped him. He hated the manager even more.He took a swig of his drink as he watched his colleagues chat each other up, unaware of what was happening to one of their own in that room.Archer tried not to imagine the torture Lola was going through, if he had it his way, she wouldn't go near that room.He glanced at the drink in front of

The manager smirked as he leaned against the pillar, victory obvious in his eyes as he watched Lola mumble to herself.She turned she jolted when she saw him leaning and watching her, he expected her to tremble but was shocked when she glared at him."Kitten has got claws," he scoffed.Lola badly wanted to bash the manager's head with something but she held herself."I am going home," she said."You still haven't taken that drink.""I am not going in there with you, and I am sure as hell not accepting any drink from you."The manager's smirk fell off his face so quickly, he advanced on Lola."What did you just say?"Lola trembled but she lifted her chin and faced him, "You heard me. I am not going anywhere with you."The managed scoffed, "I am going to assume you are talking nonsense because you have had a lot to drink."She opened her mouth and closed it like a fish, words failing her at that very moment."I am your boss. I have the power to fire you, to make you miserable with ever

Archer smiled to himself as he walked out of the restaurant, he felt proud for defending himself.The hate he had for people who abuse their power was so potent that he was tempted to call Madison and report the manager.But he refrained from doing so, he wanted to deal with this himself before it escalated. He was going to keep his distance from Lola.He didn't want her to get the wrong impression, so Archer brought out his phone to call the driver when he heard his name."Archer,"He turned to find a somber Lola standing there with a somber look on her face. He sighed."Look, I don't...""I am sorry," Lola cut him off.Archer furrowed his brows in confusion but Lola raised a hand to stop him."I am so sorry I assumed earlier but I know now that you were only trying to help."Archer nodded but he kept frowning.Lola smiled awkwardly, she couldn't make up for her rudeness but she could apologize for being so harsh."I stood up to him when you left and I realized that I wouldn't have t

Archer groaned as he rolled around in the sheets. His head felt heavy and he wanted to do nothing more than sleep in.It was a bad idea to drink when the next day was a working day. The events of yesterday were still in his mind, he dreaded having to face his colleagues after everything they witnessed in the parking lot.Archer knew it took great effort not to give in to his anger. The way they were tempting him, he almost blew up.He had no idea how he got home but he could remember waiting with Lola who ordered a cab, she kept asking him questions he couldn't answer.Archer saw to it that she entered the cab and then waited for his driver to come to pick him up, he had walked into the house startling Gabriel.The latter had bombarded him with questions but Archer couldn't answer him. How could he explain that he almost gave in to his anger and plummeted an asshole to the ground?The knock on the door made Archer's eyes pop open, and Gabriel peeked in."Aren't you late for work?" he

He used the private elevator to the office and knocked on the door."Come in," her voice called from inside.Archer entered the office, his eyes wandered around like he had never been there before.Be couldn't get used to the magnificent sight of the office."Please have a seat," Madison pointed to the chair."Thank you,""How has the experience been?" she asked."It's only been the second day. I think this question comes after a month.""Well, you are a special case and I have to ask every minute."Archer chuckled while Madison stared at him curiously. "Do you have anything to tell me?" she asked.The question made Archer pause and look at her curiously."Like what?"Madison shrugged.Archer wondered if she found out about what had happened during their night out. Nobody could have told him.He shook his head."I see,"They remained silent until Madison broke it."I overheard your colleagues talking about the Incheon project, and how you are the one handling it.""Yeah, my manager t

The woman narrowed her eyes as she stared at Archer just as he came out of the office.Her mind worked fast to deduce what he was doing here, she knew she was right in assuming.Archer unaware of the kind of thoughts the woman was having nodded politely."Good afternoon," he greeted.The woman glared at him, "Shut up," she snapped.Archer clamped his like shut, wondering what he did to deserve such treatment, he gave the woman a smile hoping it would satisfy her.He moved to get out of her way but she blocked him, her ever-knowing eyes assessing him from head to toe."I was right," she mused."You were right about what?" he implored."I was right, you don't belong here and the only way you could have gotten a chance here is through that," she nodded at Madison's door.Archer felt anger flare up in him at her words but he kept the smile on his face intact."The likes of me?" he asked.Oblivious to the anger brewing in him, the woman kept talking with no care in the world."Did I stutte

Archer turned sharply at the sound of the voice. He sighed when he saw his manager standing there with a smug look on his face.His eyes were filled with disdain for Archer because of the gossip.Archer recalled the manager's question and that alone had him frowning."What is?" he asked the manager.The manager shrugged, "You had us all fooled." Archer furrowed his brows, unaware of where this was going."I have no idea what you are talking about," he said."Of course you don't. Nothing is hidden under the sun. Who knew you would be exposed like this?" the manager said."I am going to humor you by pretending I know what you are talking about.""You don't have to pretend. I wondered why you felt so confident because you smashed the CEO to get here." the manager snickered.He clapped for Archer, "If I liked you, I would have applauded you for being a player with such high tastes."Archer clenched his jaw, he was getting tired of all of this. Why does everyone keep attacking him?He s
